In this animated version, the drivers of the two trucks are a hippo and a crocodile respectively. When the hippo gets hungry, Jean-Claude gets the short end of the stick – but it’s not what you think. . .

Since the release of the Volvo ad featuring Jean-Claude van Damme, people across the world have been ripping it off.

First Magic Mike star Channing Tatum gave us his re-interpretation. It starts with exactly the same dramatic scene as the original but as the camera reveakls more, you can see he’s standing on two trolleys.

Now South African artist Derick Watts & The Sunday Blues have shared their version of the advertisement on YouTube.
